The content of the array barrier in front of the City Lord Mansion was that the tax would be exempted from taxes for three years. After three years, it would return to normal.
Moreover, the taxes after returning to normal were even more unbelievable to the people of Imperial Water City.
Compared with the heavy taxes of the Qin Dynasty in the past, the current Imperial Water City was simply a paradise on earth.
In the hearts of the people of Imperial Water City, the gap between the Qin Dynasty and the Hua Xia Empire was too big. The latter was too good.
The entire Imperial Water City was filled with a joyous atmosphere. That night, the entire Imperial Water City was decorated with lanterns, as if it was a grand festival.
In fact, everything that happened today was indeed like a festival for the people of Imperial Water City.
Lin Qian walked in the Imperial Water City, looking at the entire city immersed in joy, a satisfied smile appeared on his face.
All of this was just a slight effort for Lin Qian. The Hua Xia Empire was Lin Qian's empire. He could do anything he wanted with a single thought.
However, it was his kindness to the people that made the people of Imperial Water City prepare to celebrate all night.
As long as the people of his empire lived well enough, it was enough. As for the lives of the people of other forces, Lin Qian had no way to care.
He was not a saint. Since the Imperial Water City had become a part of the Hua Xia Empire, it was natural for him to treat the people of the empire well.
As for the people of other forces, he would wait until the place where they lived became the territory of the Hua Xia Empire.
Gradually, a full ten days had passed since Lin Qian came to Imperial Water City. The people of the city were still somewhat unused to it.
Because the current life was too good compared to the past.
With the distribution in the City Lord's Mansion's treasury, everyone no longer had to worry about not being able to eat or wear warm clothes. The dirty alleys in the slums were completely flattened, and under the hands of the skilled craftsmen, beautiful buildings rose from the ground.
Although these houses were not very luxurious and each house was not very big, it was simply a mansion compared to the past.
Knowing that these houses were built for them, the people of Imperial Water City volunteered to help the male craftsmen.
Moreover, they were also surprised to find that the strength of these male craftsmen was actually at the Nirvana Realm. No wonder they were able to build the house so quickly.
Moreover, these Nirvana Realm male craftsmen did not put on airs at all, and they chatted cheerfully with the crowd.
The imperial soldiers patrolling the city were also a source of great interest to everyone.
Although these people were expressionless and their eyes were cold, they strictly followed the patrol route and patrolled the city. They did not offend the people in the city.
There were even some playful children who fell from high places. The passing imperial soldiers would rush over and catch them. After carefully placing them back on the ground, they would return to patrol with cold expressions.
The children running around on the road bumped into these soldiers and fell to the ground. They did not make a fuss or get angry. They still coldly picked up the children and continued to patrol.
If it was the city guards of the past, they would only laugh and watch the children fall from a high place and discuss whether they would die or be crippled.
If he was hit by a child, he would probably be sent flying with a kick. As for whether the child could take it and whether he would live or die, that would depend on his luck.
Furthermore, many of the things in Imperial Water City were sent over from the surrounding towns and villages.
The people of these towns and villages were extremely grateful to the imperial soldiers because they were also stationed there to protect them.
They cleared the surrounding soul beasts so that they would not have to worry about soul beasts rushing out of the forest to attack them.
Furthermore, they even opened up a path so that they would not have to worry about any danger on the way into the city.
In the past, the Qin Dynasty's city guards were there to protect the city and the people. But in reality?
"Pei!" An old man spat and pointed at the patrolling imperial soldiers. He shouted to the people around him, "Look, the soldiers of the Hua Xia Empire are our protectors!"
A one-armed middle-aged man nodded in agreement. His severed right arm had been chopped off by the city guards. "It's great to be a citizen of the Hua Xia Empire …"
The citizens of Imperial Water City nodded in agreement when they heard the middle-aged man's words. They clearly agreed with what he said.
"Hey, you can go and get a certificate for the Hua Xia Empire now. If you want to become a true citizen of the Hua Xia Empire, you have to get one. Hurry up and go!" Suddenly, a young man ran over from afar and shouted at everyone.
Everyone was ecstatic when they heard the young man's words. They quickly returned to their new houses and took out their old certificates from the Qin Dynasty. They ran out in high spirits, afraid that they would be too slow.
In just a few days, the citizens of Imperial Water City had fully experienced how the Hua Xia Empire treated them. Everyone was looking forward to their future lives.
The hearts of the people were what Lin Qian wanted to see in his empire.
Just like what he said, the Hua Xia Empire had to do its best in every aspect.
As for Waterway City and Waterway City, Lei Qian and Gao Benli also followed Lin Qian's instructions and pacified the citizens. They were extremely grateful to them and were very willing to become citizens of the Hua Xia Empire.
The citizens of the Wind Prefecture, Lianshan Prefecture, Qi Prefecture, Tiaoshun Prefecture, and South Ying Prefecture were also willing to become citizens of the Hua Xia Empire.
The Hua Xia Empire's treatment of the citizens was really unexpected. After all, Lin Qian was not a person of this world. His way of thinking was different from the experts of this world.
He would not completely disregard the lives of the weaker citizens just because he was strong.
In the sky far away from Imperial Water City, many figures suddenly flew over. As they approached, the light cannons of the battleships docked at the side of Imperial Water City emitted a clicking sound. Half of the cannon's barrel popped out and aimed at the incoming people.
"Stop!" A voice rang out from the group of people that were flying over. The group of people abruptly came to a halt and revealed their figures.
The people who came were none other than Fang Shuiwen, Zhou Yian, and Yang Guixiang. Besides them, there were also the current leaders of the three forces, Fang Yiping, Li Xiaotian, and Yang Yifan.
Behind them were the elders from the three factions. There were a total of two hundred people.
It could be said that the peak combat power of the three forces was all here.
Lin Qian once said that the ordinary people of the three forces would only cause trouble. The Hua Xia Empire only needed the help of the Awakening Realm experts.
Now, the three elders had brought all the Awakening Realm experts here.
The elders of the three forces that had stopped raised their heads and looked at the warship. Their eyes were filled with shock as they felt great shock in their hearts.
They had seen cloud boats before, but they had never seen such a huge cloud boat.
Furthermore, the aura emitted by this colossus was extremely ferocious. This was especially so for the pitch-black muzzle, which emitted an even more ferocious aura.
